    Where does the Thrunite TN12 stack up against other flashlights?

    Saw this light come up on another forum from sources that I wouldn't consider experts on the subject. So is this flashlight the cat's meow or just another flashlight? Thanks.

    What else can I use these batteries for?

    Duh - I've succumbed to "Old Timer's Disease" - I'm charging the receiver unit which is a cell phone type device and the 3.6v lithium batteries go into the transmitter that hangs around my neck. :ohgeez:

    What else can I use these batteries for?

    I have to wear a monitor for 30 days to see if I have A-Fib periodically. I was given a packet with (8) 3.6 volt SAFT 14500 lithium rechargeable batteries and was told to replace them every 3 days - even though I charge the unit every night. I understand these are for medical devices but I...

    Question about the Kentli rechargeable batteries

    Do these really put out 1.5 volts or is it just advertising hype? Are the Eneloops still the standard whereby all others are measured by? Thanks.

    AA NiMH charger versus charger for SLA battery question

    UPDATE - I carry a spare set of (8) Eneloops in the ecaller's case. I just bought another identical (8) AA cell holder with the same 9 volt type hookup that matches the one in my unit. So that I don't mess up my unit or the batteries, I'll continue to charge them (4) at a time in my Eneloop...

    AA NiMH charger versus charger for SLA battery question

    Is that a bad thing or not? I'll probably wind up buying their darn battery/charger pack. However, I can get a DC plug and make my own if I knew there was a better "wall charger" that I could attach the plug to and make work better.

    AA NiMH charger versus charger for SLA battery question

    That's about right, the reason I could afford the ecaller was I didn't waste money on junk batteries! :D Plus I have 100% positive feedback on eBay and don't want someone to get mad at the crappy batteries and ding my rating . . .

    AA NiMH charger versus charger for SLA battery question

    This is for a Foxpro ecaller, I realize it's not about flashlights but this forum is the only one I trust when it comes to batteries and chargers. Here is the Foxpro charger with batteries - I'd like to get just their charger but they don't sell it without having to buy the batteries...

    AA NiMH charger versus charger for SLA battery question

    I have a unit with (8) rechargeable AA Eneloops that I could charge by plugging into it a charger with a 4.0mm x 1.7 DC plug. What would be the "normal" DC output for a wall charger that would charge this setup? I assume my little Zeus 12 volt charger for "SLA batteries only" that puts out 16...

    I need some electrical help

    Hopefully someone here can help me. I'm trying to get a LaCrosse rain fall gauge to work and I've followed the instructions a dozen times and can't get that last item to work. My batteries register 1.6 volts each on my Fluke voltmeter. End to end they measure 3.2 volts. When I insert them into...

    Need help with my Fenix TK11

    I don't remember why but the other day I took my TK11 apart and somehow misplaced the two washers that go under the switch in the tail. One was metal, the other was clear plastic. They have to have a hole that's at least .310" and a maximum OD of .710". If someone has a TK11, can you tell me...

    Thoughts on Eneloop D-cell adapters?

    The batteries load in 3 groups of 2. If I were going to try something different I might use some battery packs for (7) AAs and use something like alligator clips to connect to the unit's terminals. I do have a solar power panel that has an internal battery as well but can't always locate it...

    Thoughts on Eneloop D-cell adapters?

    Just wondering if using an AA in a D-cell adapter has any real advantage since the AA has about 1/4 the m/Ah capacity? Using D rechargeables will cost a fortune if you need (6) or so in series plus you'll have a drop in overall voltage total. I have a cam that takes (6) D cells but I tried...
